I don't know much about SKS's but I kinda want one. My question is, can you take an SKS that takes the duckbill style mags and convert it to take AK mags?....if so, is it pretty easy to do or does it take some gunsmithing skills?
I'll second the Tapco 20 round mags. They're the only detachable magazine that works in an SKS (non SKS-D) that I've come across. I still don't recommend using them, though. I prefer to use the stripper clips in mine and my best bud went to the Tapco mag and then switched back to fixed because he got sick of messing with it. I also just prefer the original look and function of my SKS.
While I can see the advantage of a mag fed SKS (accuracy of an SKS with the reload of an AK), I would buy an AK instead, as the SKS-D's that I've seen for sale have been more expensive than an AK.
